Additional Parameter Options for Extract

Learn about additional parameters that may be required for your Extract configuration.

Extract uses a database logmining server in the mining database to mine the redo stream of the source database. You can set parameters that are specific to the logmining server by using the TRANLOGOPTIONS parameter with the INTEGRATEDPARAMS option in the Extract parameter file.

Note:

For detailed information and usage guidance for these parameters, see the "DBMS_CAPTURE_ADM" section in Oracle Database PL/SQL Packages and Types Reference.

The following parameters can be set with INTEGRATEDPARAMS:

  • CAPTURE_IDKEY_OBJECTS: Controls the capture of objects that can be supported by FETCH. The default for Oracle GoldenGate is Y (capture ID key logical change records).

  • DOWNSTREAM_REAL_TIME_MINE: Controls whether the logmining server operates as a real-time downstream capture process or as an archived-log downstream capture process. The default is N (archived-log mode). Specify this parameter to use real-time capture in a downstream logmining server configuration. For more information on establishing a downstream mining configuration, see Downstream Extract for Oracle GoldenGate Deployment.

  • INLINE_LOB_OPTIMIZATION: Controls whether LOBs that can be processed inline (such as small LOBs) are included in the LCR directly, rather than sending LOB chunk LCRs. The default for Oracle GoldenGate is Y (Yes).

  • MAX_SGA_SIZE: Controls the amount of shared memory used by the logmining server. The shared memory is obtained from the streams pool of the SGA. The default is 1 GB.

  • PARALLELISM: Controls the number of processes used by the logmining server. The default is 2. For Oracle Standard Edition, this must be set to 1.

  • TRACE_LEVEL: Controls the level of tracing for the Extract logmining server. For use only with guidance from Oracle Support. The default for Oracle GoldenGate is 0 (no tracing).

  • WRITE_ALERT_LOG: Controls whether the Extract logmining server writes messages to the Oracle alert log. The default for Oracle GoldenGate is Y (Yes).
